Top Five Wildlife Places in India

Wildlife tourism in India is a booming. The rare animals survive in protected areas. These are hubs of immense biodiversity hence attract tourist from all over the World.

It is difficult to place your bet on best National Parks or Tiger Reserves. Criteria may differ hence I have chosen holistic offerings of the destinations and their reputation in order to include them. Since tiger is the most popular animal in India, I have chosen destinations which are home to this magnificent cat. I have also taken into consideration the bio-diversity that prevails and the tourism infrastructure as well.

Kanha National Park

Tiger Land

The greatest achievement of the conservation unit is the rescue of hard ground swamp deer from certain extinction. The park is home to magnificent tigers along with charismatic mammals, illusive reptiles, insects and colourful birds. The floral wealth is striking as well with varied ecosystems prevailing in its niche habitats.

Incidentally this is the best managed park as well. The species have grown and so has the ecosystem. The park tourism is manned by trained, guides, drivers and the members of forest staff. The discipline, mannerism and obedience towards rules and regulations are evident on one visit.

Kanha National Park is a destination for some excellent birding besides tiger safaris. The night safari offers a welcome chance to sight the illusive and nocturnal creatures that have been completely ignored in the past.

A large number of resorts offer accommodation as per the choice and budget. Small township at Mochha has shops selling daily needs. ATMs at Khatia, Mocha & Mukki offer financial facilities in this remote place.

The tiger land is situated in Madhya Pradesh near Jabalpur which is an airport and a railway hub.
